Pro: Are video games art?

Totally Agree
I couldnt agree more that games are art, and should be thought of as such. Which is why actually that I've always been drawn to the types of games which levitate towards the playstation consoles. They aren't just games. Take MGS3 for an example, it's truely cinematic, has a terrific story, but u are also engrossed in the environment, Resident Evil aswell but it leaves you feeling differently haha.
I'm going to piss off some ppl prolly by this, but Halo isn't art, it's just a game, I cant believe how it's made it onto a few lists of the greatest games of all time kindof thing, it's a 1st person shooter, yeah, a tremendously well done one, but come on. Deus Ex, which is again, a 1st shooter, but a completely different beast.
